About The Position

As a Staff People Partner supporting our global GTM & Marketing organizations, you aren't just an HR advisor—you are a strategic architect of our most valuable asset: our people. At Databricks, we don't just use technology; we define it. In this role, you will be at the forefront of integrating AI-driven insights into the talent lifecycle, ensuring our GTM and Marketing engines are fueled by high-performance culture and intelligent organizational design.

Your mission is to evolve the People Partner function into a predictive, data-first organization that enables Databricks to scale with precision and speed.

Requirements

Experience: 7+ years of HRBP/People Partner experience in a global, hyper-growth tech environment. Supporting GTM or Marketing organizations is highly preferred.
The "AI Edge": A proven track record of using AI and advanced analytics to solve people problems and drive business outcomes (e.g., using LLMs for productivity, predictive modeling for retention, or data-driven org design).
Executive Presence: The ability to challenge senior leaders, influence complex decisions, and navigate a highly matrixed global organization.
Analytical Rigor: You don't just read reports; you find the narrative in the data and use it to drive a bias for action.
Architect Mindset: A passion for building scalable systems rather than just managing "business as usual."

Precision Talent Planning: Lead performance calibrations and succession governance, utilizing data to remove bias and elevate high-potential "Bricksters."
Executive Coaching: Coach senior leaders to move beyond traditional management, fostering a culture of accountability, rapid feedback, and radical transparency.
Future-Proofing Teams: Partner with L&D to build enablement programs that prepare our leaders to manage in an AI-augmented workplace.
